Overdose

There is no specific information on the treatment of overdose with the drug.

However, based on current knowledge of bisphosphonates, upper gastrointestinal adverse reactions (such as gastric upset, dyspepsia, oesophagitis, gastritis, ulcer) or hypocalcaemia may occur. Milk or antacids should be administered to bind the drug, and any adverse reactions should be treated symptomatically. Vomiting should not be induced due to the risk of oesophageal irritation. Patients should be kept in an upright position.

Side effects

Interaction

The oral bioavailability of ibandronic acid is reduced in the presence of food. In particular, calcium-containing foods, including milk, and other polyvalent cations (aluminum, magnesium, iron) may impair absorption of the drug, which is consistent with the results obtained in animal studies. Therefore, the drug should be taken after an overnight fast (at least 6 hours).

Keep out of reach of children.

Store at a temperature not exceeding 25 °C.

Shelf life - 3 years.
